Lighting

[Mattmac1291]

I’m probably beating a dead horse but didn’t find my answer when I searched. I have a lead on a heck of a deal. Radion xr30w pro gen3 for $300. Would this be sufficient to cover a reefer 250? Thanks everyone

That light is made for a 24 x 24 coverage area. I believe the 250 is 36 x 24. What do you plan to have in the tank?

2 rbta,some zoas, a couple leathers, a scoly, and a half dead candy cane right now.

You could probably get by with the light mounted higher and the intensity turned up. I'd definitely want something supplemental in the future if it was me.

For the price I figured I can’t beat it, right now I have a knock off reefbreeder ( I think)
And I’m not a fan of the programming and lack of internet help, every time I search I don’t find what I have plus the fans scream. So before I lose the light and have to spend a ton of money. I want something better with better control-ability so I figure nows the time
